Blechh. I'm glad I never advanced beyond PS1. Little kids who grew up with PS2 & 3 must be hitting their 20s by now and feeling a bit disenfranchised. Hope & Change leaves a metallic taste in their mouths.

Sony is actually offering up some pretty good stuff for free. Infamous is an awesome game and I encourage anyone who hasn't gotten it yet to grab it while its free, its like GTA but your a superhero with lightning powers who can climb buildings. I played through it last year and its one of the better new games out there for the ps3. The others I couldn't care less about. (little big planet is supposed to be great, but its not my kind of game)

I'm done with ps3 online anyway though. I've been using my xbox now and it really is no comparison when it comes to online. I will continue to use my ps3 for single player games though(getting LA NOIRE today!).

Yeah they have a 180MB patch that mostly just makes you change your password.:huh:

After you've play La Noire for a bit please send me a PM of how much you like or dislike it.

Metacritic scores Looks good.

The trailer videos pretty much have me sold on it! It will be interesting being a detective in a game versus being the typical criminal.
